Default Here I go again.

Feeling more numbness tonight. Left shoulder feels like I can possibly draw a line where the numbness starts. (right where the humerus meets the shoulder joint) It's not all-over numbness down the arm, but there's more numbness in that hand than there was a few days ago.

Right hand has more numbness, but I'm not sure where it starts.

I have numbness in the chest area. (makes wearing a bra, and not wearing a bra really uncomfortable)

I can feel numbness wrapping around my rib cage just below my chest, Goes across the diaphragm too. Feel some numbness around and below the navel too. Feeling some more spasticity around the ribs. Really not happy about that. Last May when I had the Spasticity From Hell, it ended up getting really really painful. I'd rather not go thru that again. It sucked.

Numbness in my toes actually doesnt feel really horrible, but I cant tell if it's gotten worse or better. Sometimes I cant remember what "normal" sensation felt like. I had some spasticity in the back of my calf this morning...while I was climbing up the stairs. Not a good time to have the surprise charley horses hit. Oh...and part of my butt is numb. I really do not like that. Make it go away please!



Oh, and it's 530am and I cant sleep. (I did sleep till 2pm yesterday, so not all that surprising)


Who did I tick off in a previous life (or this one) that I have to get tortured like this on a regular basis. It's starting to really tick me off.

On a non-MS note, the tendonitis I have in my right elbow is kicking up tonight. Elbow hurts, and the shoulder blade on that side feels like someone stabbed me in the back several times, and left the knife there. (more like knives) I'm wondering if the stabbing knife pain is from holding my arm in a weird way because of the weird numbness in the chest area, or the fact that I've been wearing sport bras lately because they dont seem to bother the numb sensation as much as my underwires do. Sport bra puts the support in different places, and doesnt actually support much...sorry...TMI)
